In exploring the passage of place and time, I often return to the image of waves—their ebb and flow offering a quiet rhythm that informs the layered techniques I use across this and two other works, where cyanotype is placed over painted acrylic surfaces.

 

Waves come and go, gradually reshaping the sand as crumbled grains settle and the ground subtly tilts in unseen ways. Beneath the surface, stacked layers are silently rearranged. I sense that cities move in much the same way. Life unfolds atop these ever-shifting layers—unaware, we drift through them like the waves.
